Gary Sletcher Entertainment
"Gary was amazing, from start to finish, he arrived on time, setup quietly and blew the socks off everyone who attended. His genre is huge and his knowledge on different instruments is amazing. We would recommend Gary to anyone looking. Definitely one of the best muscians we have booked."

"wow, so much more than expected! Debi gave us everything we wanted, both on the train and at the Elgin Market venue. Her choice of songs kept us entertained all the way. Highly professional and well recommended. I am now thinking of the next time we can book."
Eu4ria
"Jason's group performed wonderfully at the end year corporate Gig. It was the first time we hosted with a band, we often get a DJ to play music. The music they played was amazing and very hip I recommend him for future gigs."
Afrotopia
"Afrotopia provided an exceptional live music entertainment experience at the Table Bay Hotel for New Year's Eve. Their talented performers, professionalism and ability to create a lively atmosphere made the night a resounding success. I highly recommend Afrotopia for any event looking to bring energy and joy through music. I can't wait to see what they have in store next time."
Beat-Route
""Hi Daniel,
I didn’t even get a chance to chat to you guys on the day!
All went so quick! In saying that, I most certainly heard your beautiful music and I cannot thank you enough for contributing to our wedding day and making it a magical one! Your professionalism and helpfulness leading up to the day was truly remarkable and you were always available to chat or answer any questions (and instructions!) I had immediately.
For this I thank you and will most certainly recommend you to any future bride and/or event.
Good luck to you and the rest of Beat-route, I wish you a very successful future and will most certainly see you again at Market sometime.
I will forward you some photos when I receive them for sure!"
